Intro: Em D Am7 C

Verse 1:
Em                 D                 Am
  The nights are long 'cause we stay up
           C                           Em
Passing a song 'til the sun's in our cup
                 D                  Am
The day is too short to let it all end
              C                            Em
Now I have to sort through all the loose ends
                 D                 Am
And I know it's wrong to feel this way
             C                         Em
To feel the beat of your heart in my veins
               D                      Am
And I need to stop before it's too late
                   C                       Am
Before you're the only thing keeping me sane

Pre-chorus:
            C B
Keeping me sane

Chorus:
Em                 D                     Am
  Oh, sweet satin boy, I long for your touch
                   C               Em
To break down the toy you love so much
             D                     Am
Sweet satin boy, got to say goodbye
                   C                      Em
Even though it was coy, oh, how lucky am I?
D               Am              C
  Sweet satin boy, sweet satin boy

Verse 2:
Em    D              Am                    C
  You left me on the shelf, a shell of my former self
 Em                   D
Cracked and dirty, no longer sturdy
Am                   C
Promise me, oh, you promised me
Em                 D                   Am
  And I know it's wrong to feel this way
             C                          Em
To feel the beat of your heart in my veins
               D                      Am
And I need to stop before it's too late
                   C                     Am
Before you're the only thing keeping me sane

Pre-chorus:
            C      B
Keeping me sane, oh

Chorus:
Em                 D                     Am
  Oh, sweet satin boy, I long for your touch
                   C                Em
To break down the toy you love so much
            D                    Am
Sweet satin boy, got to say goodbye
                    C                     Em
Even though it was coy, oh, how lucky am I?
              D                   Am
Sweet satin boy, I long for your touch
                   C                Em
To break down the toy you love so much
            D                     Am
Sweet satin boy, got to say goodbye
                    C                     Em
Even though it was coy, oh, how lucky am I?

Outro:
D                   Am  C
  Oh, how lucky am I?
